Haiti - FLASH : The TPS for Haitians extended by 9 months 08/12/2020 06:18:43
Washington has agreed to extend a set of temporary migration protections that allow immigrants from six countries to live in the United States, officials said Monday. The so-called Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for some citizens of El Salvador, Haiti, Nicaragua, Sudan, Honduras and Nepal has been extended by the Department of Security domestic (DHS) at least until October 2021. Remember that the TPS allows certain foreigners whose country of origin experiences a natural disaster, armed conflict or other extraordinary event to stay in the United States and apply for a work permit. The status must be renewed periodically every six to 18 months by the Secretary of Homeland Security. The TPS has been in the crosshairs of Republican President Donald Trump's administration in recent months as it seeks to cut humanitarian protections for hundreds of thousands of immigrants who were due to be deported from the United States in early March after a period of downturn. The extension is part of an agreement between the administration and plaintiffs in related lawsuits aiming at not to end protections when lawsuits filter through the U.S. court system. https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31801-haiti-flash-justice-authorizes-trump-to-end-tps-58-000-haitians-risk-deportation.html Democratic President-elect Joe Biden has pledged to protect registrants from being returned to unsafe countries.
